Chapter 864 Two Tunnels
"Choose me!"
"Choose me!"
"My place is clean!"
"I'm pure here!"
"You are shameless!"
"You're a slut!"
The two gatekeepers saw that Mo Zi was hesitant, and they started by boasting about themselves, then belittling each other, and finally they started beating each other.
Zhang Tuohai felt complicated as he watched the two doors rolling around on the ground.
When he first came into this world, he thought he was experienced and knowledgeable, and had seen all kinds of big scenes.
However, the two doors in front of him taught him a lesson. He had never seen such a scene before.
The two gates actually fought against each other in order to invite others to pass through one side.
Who has seen this?
By the way, the beautiful girls like Mo Zi and Lilith invited by these two doors have nothing to do with him, a big guy who picks his toes.
When will the man who is shaking with anger and picking his feet be able to stand up?
Zhang Tuohai, who originally wanted to throw a couple of punches, finally gave up the idea after looking at the two doors rolling farther and farther away.
Forget it, people can't be as petty as dogs.
"Let's go, before they come back, let's go in quickly, otherwise it will be troublesome when they come back."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"Well, okay."
Mo Zi followed Zhang Tuohai and quickly crossed the threshold and entered the temple.
After entering the door, there is a huge courtyard in front of you. The courtyard is also paved with red bricks and there are some maple trees planted around it. At this time, the leaves of the maple trees have turned red . Wind chimes with talismans hanging on them are tied to the branches of the maple trees. When the breeze blows, they will make tinkling sounds.
The courtyard was quiet and deserted, with only a broom quietly sweeping the ground.
That's right, there's only a broom, no people.
In a spacious and deserted temple, the surroundings were bright red like blood, the talismans on the maple trees moved in the wind, and a broom gently swept the fallen leaves in the courtyard. This scene gave Zhang Tuohai an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
It seems that this kind of scene can be seen in many horror movies.
However, after passing through the two funny doors at the entrance, Zhang Tuohai felt that his endurance had improved a lot and the impact of the scene had also weakened a bit.
He turned around and glanced at Lilith and Mozi who were following behind him.
At this time, Mo Zi was standing behind Lilith, looking at the broom carefully, while Lilith looked very interested.
"Dad, I want that, go get it for me." Lilith said, tugging at the corner of Zhang Tuohai's clothes.
"No, why do you want this thing?" Zhang Tuohai was a little puzzled.
"A broom that can clean automatically. If we can figure out the principle and make a few, then we won't have to clean anymore, right?"
Lilith said.
"Why would we need to research a separate broom for a self-propelled machine when we can just equip it with one?"
Zhang Tuohai was puzzled.
"You don't understand. This is called style. Go quickly, go quickly." Lilith said, pushing Zhang Tuohai from behind.
At this moment, an old voice interrupted the tug of war between the two.
“Ahem…”
"Isn't it impolite to discuss someone else's fate so loudly in front of them?"
Zhang Tuohai looked up and saw that it was the broom that twisted its body and jumped in front of him.
"What you said makes sense. We can keep our voices down." Lilith rolled her eyes at Broom and lowered her voice.
When Broom heard this, he was so angry that his beard almost stood out. Is the point that the sound is loud?
"Haven't you asked yet?"
Zhang Tuohai didn't bother to pay attention to Lilith, he just bowed to the broom and said.
The two beast-head gates gave Zhang Tuohai an idea, that is, the checkpoints do not necessarily need to be passed by force.
Maybe you can try negotiation.
The effect is good and it saves effort.
"You are a young man who knows how to talk. I am the Broom God, and I am already three thousand six hundred years old."
As Broom spoke, he stroked his beard with a smug look on his face.
"So you've been sweeping the floor for 3,600 years? After sweeping for so long, there are still so many bristles on the broom. It looks pretty strong. What material is it made of? Is it reinforced by runes?"
As Lilith spoke, she squatted down and carefully examined the runes on the broom. At the same time, she poked the branches on the broom with her fingers, studying their physical properties.
“Don’t poke it! It’s itchy there… Ouch, it’s so itchy… Hahahaha… Don’t poke it, hahahaha…”
The broom god kept rolling on the ground, even disturbing the pile of maple leaves that had just been swept into a pile.
Looking at Lilith squatting on the ground and poking with her fingers, and then looking at the Broom God rolling on the ground, Zhang Tuohai felt like he might have come to the wrong place.
This place is completely unreliable. Is it a mistake to look for a way to cross the river from here?
At this moment, a solemn voice came from inside the temple: "Broom God, lead them to the Liuli Well and send them across the river. Don't miss the time."
He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Zhang Tuohai always felt that there seemed to be a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"Yes, yes, I'll send them across the river right away. Ouch, little aunt, don't poke it anymore. You really can't poke there. It's too itchy. Hahahaha..."
The broom god begged for mercy.
"That's enough. It's still a 3,600-year-old child. Why are you bothering it? I'll make you a broom out of gold when I get back."
Zhang Tuohai took Lilith aside and rescued the Broom God from Lilith's clutches.
"Come on, follow me."
The Broom God got up from the ground, shook off the dust on his body, and looked like a dog that had just crawled out of the water.
After shaking off the dust on his body, he led everyone towards a corner gate.
The crowd passed through the corner gate, crossed several courtyards, and came to a remote courtyard.
The Broom God pointed to an octagonal glazed well in the corner of the yard and said, "Isn't the purpose of your coming here to find a way to cross the Forgotten River? Go down from this mirror, there is a passage below, follow the passage all the way down, and you will reach the other side of the river bank, ouch!"
As soon as the broom god finished speaking, he felt a pain in his buttocks, and then the whole broom fell directly into the octagonal glazed well.
"Ouch, which bastard kicked me off?"
The broom god was rubbing his butt at the bottom of the well and cursing.
"It's me." Lilith slid down the rope to the bottom of the well.
Afterwards, Zhang Tuohai followed with Mo Zi on his back and a high-powered flashlight in hand.
"I was kind enough to lead the way for you, why did you kick me?"
The Broom God asked unhappily .
"Who knows whether you are sincere or not? What if there is a trap here? So please explore the way first."
Lilith said with a smile beside her.
"Why is this place so big?"
Zhang Tuohai held up a high-intensity flashlight and shone it around. The mouth of the octagonal glazed well was not large, only big enough for one person, but the bottom was not small, as big as a room. Not far ahead, there were two dark passages.
"This is the tunnel under the river leading to the other side of the river. Just pick one and keep going forward. When you reach the end, you will have crossed the river." The Broom God said, pointing to the two tunnels ahead.
"Why dig two? And they are so close together? If they are used as backup, there is no value in digging two so close together, right?"
Lilith asked curiously as she looked at the tunnel.
"In fact, there was only one plan in the original plan. In order to speed up the construction progress, the Shovel brothers started work on both sides of the river." The Broom God said this with a rather unhappy look on his face.
"What's the result?"
Zhang Tuohai asked.
"The result is that they both dug through." The Broom God's face flushed slightly.
